About This Show

Kojak is an American television detective series starring Telly Savalas as the title character, a lollipop-loving New York City Police Department Detective Lieutenant Theo Kojak. It aired from October 24, 1973, to March 18, 1978, on CBS.

I was born right after Kojak went off the air. I have seen some reruns on dish tv Atlanta though, and I think it is a classic tv show. Telly Savalas was great in the show. I can't believe it aired for 125 episodes. What a great run for a television show!
